Dianne, that's something I would do; speak my mind, mean well, and then wonder if I should have kept out of it.

No, I think it was right that you said something. The main thing is that you didn't say anything in front of her husband. But you're her sister. Sister's have special rights. She's probably keeping quiet, because she knows you're right and has to first come to terms with her self. And she may have a hard time admitting that you are right.

The silent treatment is hard, I know. I can't stand being left in the dark either. I would try to just act like the conversation never happened. She just might need time.

Gosh, I think the French accent sounds so charming. Oh well.
